Hints for Homebuilders surpasses 2.5 million hits

EAA’s Hints for Homebuilders video series, which has more than 245 videos, has has surpassed 2.5 million plays by aviators worldwide.

The series, hosted by experienced aircraft builders for builders of all levels, was introduced in March 2008. Since then, the variety and depth of the videos have continued to expand to meet the demand in every facet of homebuilding.

“For nearly 60 years, EAA has been the resource for those who build and restore their own aircraft,” said Charlie Becker, EAA’s manager of member products. “The Hints for Homebuilders series has been successful beyond our expectations, as builders find the series the perfect way to build their own skills. This series build on EAA’s knowledge and information tradition that began with such legends as Paul Poberezny and Tony Bingelis.”

The complete Hints for Homebuilders series is available at EAAVideo.org.

Also available at that website is a preview of EAA’s new instructional DVD on TIG welding of 4130 chrome moly (chromoly) steel for aircraft construction. This increasingly popular welding method has been featured for several years in EAA’s SportAir Workshop series, but now has a video version of that instruction available with Wyatt Swaim, known as “Mr. TIG” with more than 30 years of experience.

Orders for DVD are now being taken online in the “Featured Products” section of ShopEAA.com.
